Lyrics:
MUEVE LA CADERA
SIN PREOCUPACIÓN
FRENTE PARA ARRIBA
PONLE TU SAZÓN
LUZ EN TU SEMBLANTE
HOMBROS PARA ATRÁS
CAMINA HACIA ADELANTE
CON SEGURIDAD
ERES UN ASTRO QUE BRILLA MUY FUERTE
EL MUNDO ES TUYO
Y TODO LO QUE SIENTES
CON GRACIA Y ESTILO,
NADIE TE DETIENE
CONVIERTES EN ORO
A TODO LO QUE ENCUENTRES
¡FABULOSA! SÍ
¡INGENIOSA! SÍ
¡PODEROSA! SÍ
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
DON’T LIVE IN THE PAST
LOOK AROUND YOU NOW
MAKE THIS FEELING LAST
GIRL, THIS IS YOUR CHANCE
WELCOME ALL THINGS NEW
GO WHERE YOU WANT TO GO
IT'S ALL UP TO YOU
A BRAND NEW ATTITUDE
YOU’RE SHINING SO BRIGHT,
LIKE THE SUN AND THE STARS
THIS WHOLE WORLD IS YOURS,
BE WHOEVER YOU ARE
WITH GRACE, LOVE AND STYLE,
NOTHING GETS IN YOUR WAY
TIME TO BE BOLD AND BE BRAVE!
SHE IS POWERFUL!
SHE’S INGENIOS!
SHE IS FABULOUS!
¡PODEROSA! SÍ
¡INGENIOSA! SÍ
¡FABULOSA! SÍ
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
I REMEMBER WE’D VISIT ABUELA
WHEN I WAS JUST A LITTLE GIRL
RUNNING UP AND DOWN THE STREETS
I’D GET LOST IN MY OWN WORLD
SOON AS WE GOT BACK TO THE STATES
FATHER SAID, NO MAS ESPAÑOL
HE DESPISED IT.
I DESPISED HIM FOR IT.
MISHEL
This isn’t how you were raised. Trust me, I know what it feels like to grow up smothered by religion. Ten years of therapy, and I still can’t shake my Catholic guilt.
LUCI
THE YEARS HURRIED BY
AND WE NEVER RETURNED
FATHER WOULD NOT ALLOW IT
MADE SURE WE UNLEARNED
AND SLOWLY THOSE MEMORIES
JUST FADED AWAY
ABUELA PASSED ON
MAMI NEVER SPOKE HER NAME
BUT SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL!
SHE WAS STRONG!
SHE WAS FABULOUS!
¡FABULOSA! SÍ
¡INGENIOSA! SÍ
¡PODEROSA! SÍ
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
LUCI
So how did you overcome it?
MISHEL
¿Qué?
LUCI
The guilt?
MISHEL
Ah, that never goes away — welcome to being a divorced, childless woman en Guatemala.
IT’S A REAL SHAME,
THE WAY THAT THEY SHAME US
CONTEMPLATING ALL THE WAYS
TO PERSUADE US
A SHAME, A SHAME, A SHAME……
ONE DAY THEY FALL AT YOUR FEET
BLINDED BY YOUR BEAUTY,
THE NEXT YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG,
THEY KNOCK YOU DOWN TO THE FLOOR.
WITH NOWHERE TO GO.
I COULDN’T WALK OUT THE DOOR.
BUT HE SAID KEEP SWAYING YOUR HIPS,
YOUR GOOD FOR NOTHING
CHILD BEARING HIPS,
BUT THERE WERE TEARS AND BRUISES
AND BLOOD ON MY LIPS.
SO I HAD
THE COURAGE AND STRENGTH
TO SAY “¡NUNCA JAMAS!”
NOW I’M TAKING A STAND
FOR ALL WOMEN WHO ARE…
¡REVELADAS! ¡SÍ!
¡EXPLOTADAS! ¡SÍ!
¡ABUSADAS! ¡SÍ!
PERO, ¡SHE SE PUEDE!
¿FABULOSA? ¡SÍ!
¿INGENIOSA? ¡SÍ!
¿PODEROSA? ¡SÍ!
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
¿FABULOSA? ¡SÍ!
¿INGENIOSA? ¡SÍ!
¿PODEROSA? ¡SÍ!
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
MISHEL
¡Okay … es hora de brindar!
For ALL the powerful chapinas y Latinas who paved the way … Who fought for justice; who served the poor, wrote words of paz y tolerancia and sang songs llena de pasión! For the artists, explorers y las primeras. Y para TODAS las mujeres who lead with love, courage and determination — who continue to fight, and who believe, YES WE CAN!
¡Dolores Huerta!
¡Rigoberta!
¡Ellen Ochoa!
¡Celia Cruz!
¡Gloria Estefan!
¡Rita Moreno!
¡Sonya Sotomayor! ¡y Selena!
¡Eva Perón!
¡Eva Longoria!
Allende, Esquivel … Cisneros y Mistral …
¡Frida, Herrera, Lopez y Shakira!
¡SHE SE PUEDE!
